Anybody feel applying some form of protectant would delay this process? Silicon? 303 products? Or the krytox mentioned above?
I have the same issue with my MX2017 the rubber seal is deteriorated on both the falcon doors and SC is refusing to cover this in warranty and is charging me 2K bill.
Thanks for posting this! I hate that these X's have so many issues, but I'm always encouraged when they redesign parts to actually address the issue instead of just replacing. Recently had my front door handles replaced when one failed, and it was awesome to see them swap in a new design.I brought my car in to the service center in November 2019 to fix the shudder. I also have this deteriorating rubber seal issue and brought it to their attention. Initially the service center said they believed it wasn't covered under warranty and confirmed a fix would mean replacing the entire glass on my dime.
When I got the car back with the shudder gone, I asked again about the rubber seals over text. Here's what I asked:
Did we have an answer on whether the glass/rubber seal on the falcon wing doors can recovered under warranty?
And they said:
It is under investigation at this point. Tesla is producing a revision roof glass for the Falcon doors. It is currently unavailable. We are advising to reschedule for this concern after December when the revision parts are available.
So maybe there will be an official replacement part which may fix this issue, hopefully under warranty. A lot of maybes and what ifs, so hopefully there will be an answer soon.
What month and year did you have the work done?I've had pretty much ALL rubber trim replaced under warranty, I brought it in right before my warranty expired and they didn't bat an eye.
Picked it up like it is brand new? Or from an existing service issue?I just picked my X up from the dealer today with this same issue. The service center told me it was not covered under warranty. I showed them this thread and that other users have got this replaced under warranty but my tech was firm in that this was not covered. He attempted to tell me that this strip of rubber does not effect weather-proofing or sealing of the door at all to which I responded "then why does it exist in the first place" and he was speechless.. I think I will go to a different service center next time and try my luck again.
Apologies I should have clarified, I picked it up from an existing service issue. 2017yr car with about 20k miles on it.Picked it up like it is brand new? Or from an existing service issue?
Wow that's awful if true. Can anyone else validate? If true this might be the deal breaker from me on getting an X. If the shudder drama wasn't enough... dropping $2K every couple years for new seals out of pocket is absurd. Is there really no recommended fix? Some kind of seal protector?The service center has told me this week that there was a change to the warranty. Apparently this was never covered under warranty. Previously they allowed the service centers to choose to replace the windows with the deteriorating seals under good will. Now apparently the warranty says even a good will replacement is not allowed.
There is a new revision as of February 2020.
